The members of Dispatch, whose first tour in nearly a decade was announced on New Year’s Day, are alarmed at the profligate ticket scalping activity already occurring with online ticket brokers all over the country for their upcoming summer tour, even though tickets are not available for presale until January 21st. The band has issued the following statement to their fans on their website www.dispatchmusic.com.
It is a frequent tactic of ticket brokers to offer ticket inventory they do not have and then run a “bait and switch” scam on customers who are looking for tickets, telling customers that the seats advertised have been sold, but that they have other great seats. It is highly advisable to buy only via Ticketmaster to avoid purchasing fraudulent tickets.
